Carmen is 18 months today.....Where did my baby go???

I can't believe my little angel is 18 months old today. She just had her check up this morning and FINALLY made it to the U.S. growth charts!!! She is a WHOPPING 29 & 1/2" (HAHA) and a GIGANTIC 21 pounds 7 ounces (HAHA).......I wish I could freeze her at this age, but just as with Gabriel it is not to be Just wanted to share a few pics with you (what's new??? )

Lynn,
she is the most adorable little girl. I know Abby is running right behind her in age. Abby will be 18 months old on the 13th of March. I dread our dr appt. though Abby screams the whole time. I need a nap when we get out of there.

I think Carmen is about the size Abby was when we brought her home. Abby weighed 23 lbs and was 29 inches long. She was only 10 months old though.

Too funny! Abby is a big baby. But the last time we went to the dr's they said that her height was 90% when it had been 95% so I think she is slowing down a little. But, her weight was off of the chart. Heavy baby!

Awww, happy birthday Carmen. She's looking precious as usual. It's hard to believe she only weighs a pound more than Guapo does at eight months. She's a little peanut. Give her a birthday smooch from me.

rdority......

I'd say about 98% of the time she IS as angelic as she looks, but if she gets mad WATCH OUT!!! She throws herself on the floor and has a fit.....it doesn't last long though since I ignore her...she is SOOOO busy that she can't stay there long because she HAS to get moving again.

Carmen is just such a doll! I enjoy seeing her pictures! I think 18 months is such a fun age! Enjoy every minute - as you know it goes by so fast!

Happy 18 month Carmen! She is cute as ever! Sammy just turned 19 months and I feel exactly the same as you do. Bye bye baby, Hello toddler! But it sure is fun watching them learn so much at this age.

She is a beautiful little girl! Our daughter is 3 and just went for her check up and weighs a little over 26 lbs so she is a peanut as well. I love that she is so petite and the doctor says she will be that way! Hey, I'm happy as long as she stays healthy!
